  * Wayland enabled gstreamer
  * KDE Frameworks Wayland programs 
  * Native Calligra Wayland programs (NOT on this ISO)
Wayland Desktops:
  * Weston's Example Desktop (selectable at login, and as a nested session from the application menu)
  * Orbital (selectable at login, and as a nested session from the application menu) (NOT on this ISO)
  * Hawaii (selectable at login, and as a nested session from the application menu)
  * Papyros (selectable at login, and as a nested session from the application menu) (Only works from nested currently)
  * Gnome-shell (selectable at login, and as a nested session from the application menu) 
      **Does not work on Virtualbox, except it can run nested
  * Enlightenment E19 (selectable at login, and as a nested session from the application menu)
      **Does not work on Virtualbox, except it can run nested
  * SWC tiling Wayland server *Does not work on Virtualbox, and does not run nested. Only tested on Intel (selectable at login)
       **Use super+enter for terminal, and super+r for dmenu
Other Features:
  * A graphical utility for configuring udev for weston multiseat/multi pointer
  * A rudimentary but functional Wayland login manager written in Bash, that supports user switching and session selection. 
  * RDP enabled Weston

New in these ISOs:---------

The WaylandLoginManager no longer uses weston-launch to call Wayland session, and instead uses runuser. This requires logind v216 due to bugfixes. This is for better security, as non-weston sessions would not hang up the file descriptors that weston-launch opens.

Global permissions to the plugdev group are no longer granted to framebuffer devices. Now they are granted by udev, by setting the UACCESS attribute, and applying a workaround in Weston.

Except for the setting the proper variables for a user session (with /usr/bin/wlruntime_vars), and config file for the login manager display, and configuring runuser to use systemd with the PAM configuration files, all of the functionality of the WaylandLoginManager is now in /usr/bin/waylandloginmanager

Systemd is now provided upstream by Ubuntu, which drastically reduces the number of first tier files that gets overwritten to 2.

Freeze to Mesa 10.3 because egl_gallium was dropped https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86701 which severly impacted usability and performance on Virtualbox, and platforms that require the framebuffer.

Gnome sessions are now called by gnome-session, instead of calling gnome-shell directly, which fixes a few issues with logoff not working.

Papyros is a new Wayland shell, however currently only works nested, as there seems to be issues in the way it handles Weston's fullscreen-shell.

---------

***There is no password for the Live Session User (beccaholic), while autologin is enabled when starting as a live CD, if you get prompted for a password when starting a second login session, the password field is blank***
If you choose to install, the live session user does not get added, and instead the login becomes the default usernme and password that is configured at the installation wizard

---------
Problems and Notes:

  The Grub menu in Utopic ISOs seem to no longer be compatible with the USB startup creator, it seems to be an upstream issue with Utopic as I saw the same behaviour with a default ISO. To start the live session on the menu-less USB disk, you will have to type the word "live" and press enter.

  Calligra's QT5 port is early, as it only just started, so there are no Calligra binaries yet...

  Orbital will be back on a later ISO when libweston is merged into main Weston.

  When entering the password in the network connection plasmoid, for an unknown reason, the password hiding charachter is not a dot, or an asterisk, but the number '9'
